Unfair Labor Practice Filed Against Wash. Post

WASHINGTON -- The union representing The Washington Post employees has filed an unfair labor practice claim with the National Labor Relations Board.

The union says the newspaper pays some, but not all reporters who appear on Washington Post Radio. There is also a claim that the Post will not disclose how the decision is made on who gets paid and who doesn't.

Tina Gulland, of the Washington Post, says participation is voluntary, and those who provide radio content outside of their usual newspaper responsibilities are paid.

Washington Post Radio is owned by Bonneville International Corporation, which also owns WTOP.
